Launch your boat from the public boat ramp adjacent to the property and find the entrance to the Coorong National park just around the bend. Upon your return, moor your boat at the property’s private jetty. Watch the twilight settle on the water as you bbq the day’s catch on the upstairs balcony and the kids bounce on the trampoline and play back yard cricket on the expansive fully fenced lawn area. Enjoy a game of pool upstairs or cook up a storm in the gourmet entertainer kitchen. There is a smaller living room downstairs with kitchenette, queen bedroom and bathroom for families to be able to enjoy some alone time too. This is one family entertainer which caters beautifully for larger groups and if you own a boat, you will love the freedom to keep it moored at the jetty for the duration of your stay. **Please note this property is Strictly non smoking.

overall great stay
We all had a great stay, plenty of room for our family and kitchen was supplied with all you would need to have a easy stay. We would have liked to have been warned about 5min maximum showers before booking. I get we haven't had much rain of late however when you pay to stay somewhere the owners should allow for that. Window screens need to be cleaned.

Ahhh the serenity
Hindmarsh Island is our family’s favourite place to relax and this property gave us LOTS of opportunity to do that! It was very clean, comfortable and every need has been thought of! The kitchen had everything you could need just bring your own food!
The highlight was the ability to sit on the property’s own jetty at the end of the day as the sun was setting. We will be back for sure!
Great location nice and clean and exactly as described, massive well kept back yard for the kids to play with fenced off private jetty for the boat, pool table was a hit with everyone such a great place to share the weekend with friends and family. Easy to deal with hosts highly recommended.

Great location -we love the riverfront access for water-skiing, canoeing, sailing and stand-up paddle boarding. The property is well maintained and presented with lots of little extras including coffee pods, spices, pool table which makes the stay extra enjoyable. We would definitely stay again. Thank you

Great yard for pets, just needs Netflix/Foxtel for nights you're inside escaping the mozzies!
Nice balcony to sit and relax. As pool table was also the dining table, it was a little awkward to eat a meal at. Large kitchen with everything we needed.
